In short: An excellent day out with great support throughout the course
In full: How can you fault the GSR - Flat course with PB potential and very well supported. Pleased with T-Shirt and medal which was collected from a well organised funnel. I will run this one again and have no hesitation in recommending it.

In short: Not as good as last year - some teething problems with the venue
In full: Ran much faster than last year. There were a couple of issues at the start but well marshalled throughout. The downside for the ample parking is running towards leaving traffic down to the finish line. May need to be tweaked a little for next year.

In short: Well worth travelling for
In full: I really enjoyed this race. It was a little wet at the start but soon improved. Many thanks to all of the marshalls who were very supportive as were the crowds in the town section. I think it's great to cross paths with runners at different stages of the course whether ahead/behind/running in the other wave.
Very happy with the medal and T-Shirt although have received technical tops via sponsors at other races. I always see a goody bag as a bonus and not a reason for running.
No issues with travel/parking, got a massive PB and would have no hesitation in coming back next year.

In short: A Great turn-out despite the weather
In full: Another PB on this course which was a little wetter this year. Personally I don't mind the two laps of the green as you get the support at that stage twice. Rather two laps in the middle than at the start as per the old half marathon course. Would prefer prodirect to offer a running top that at least said Torbay 10K on it mind. And once again a queue at the finish so my published time approx 20 seconds too slow.

In short: Very enjoyable off-road 10K. Come for the scenery and the atmosphere not for a PB
In full: Returned for a second year and love the scenery and the atmosphere of this race. Single file at times through the woods which slows progress a little at times. Improved by six minutes on last year though. Apparantly good information coming back to spectators at the start/finish and you can buy some rather tasty cake!

In short: A bit of a challenge but a good run to do. Definitely not going to get a PB here. Well organised and a well earned T-Shirt at the end.
